Zyprexa Sedation - What to do ?

Posted by jimmygold70 on December 26, 2001, at 16:28:31

I am taking Effexor 225mg + Klonopin 2-4mg for Depression, Anxiety and Borderline Personality symptoms. My PDoc added Risperdal against my impulsivity and obsessive ideation (i.e. Serotogenic augmentation). I had sexual dysfunction since it raised my Prolactin to the skies, so we switched to Zyprexa 5mg/day. This is effective for me, but I am to tired and not able to concentrate.

Is there any way to counteract this sedating effect ? Anything to add to the cocktail ? My PDoc says Seroquel is even more sedating. Is that true ? We still don't have Geodon here. Actually, I don't like that dopamine antagonism at all. I'll happily do without it.

Thanks for the help.
Jimmy
